Question

A box without a top is made from a rectangular piece of cardboard, with dimensions 27 centimeters by 18 centimeters, by cutting out square corners with side length x centimeters. Which expression represents the volume of the box in terms of x?
(2x−27)(2x−18)x

(27−2x)(18−2x)x

(27−x)(18−x)x

(27−2x)(18−2x)4x

Answer 1

By cutting each corner we have that the resulting dimensions are:
 27 - 2x
 18 - 2x
 Height = x
 Therefore, the volume of the box in terms of the variable x, is given by:
 V (x) = (x) * (27-2x) * (18-2x)
 Answer:
 The volume of the box in terms of x is:
 (27-x) (18-x) x
